"""A reproducing entity.

Part of the Chrome build flags optimization.

The Task class is used by different modules. Each module fills in the
corresponding information into a Task instance. Class Task contains the bit set
representing the flags selection. The builder module is responsible for filling
the image and the checksum field of a Task. The executor module will put the
execution output to the execution field.
